The Caribbean shines with stars; sparkling islands so provocative, so utterly charismatic, they become wellsprings for exploration.
We find fathoms of freedom in blue-turning-turquoise waters sailing from Miami to Key West; energetic, effervescent, Cuban-spiced destinations that sway with a palpable buzz. A fragrant cachet of florals and French baguettes. Waves of ivory-coloured sands.
Virgin Gorda and Gustavia offer perfect days of power-lounging where the chic and sleek tan. Delve into Deshaies to explore rainforests, French ruins and filming sites of Death in Paradise. Bubbles of champagne and volcanic mud baths burst in the sun of Soufriere.
Take a strenuous-but-worth-it hike up Gros Piton or watch clouds float across Petite Piton from Hummingbird Beach. 18-square kilometres of perfection, Bequia is that vintage postcard with sugary white beaches, swaying palms, and lobster shacks selling ‘free beer tomorrow'. Does it get any better than this?
